England's alternate defense reality

Time Magazine's Battleland blog  has an interesting read about an op/ed done by Gordon England in the NY Times.

It hits some of the high points of the revolving door career of England and his love for special interest. Fort Worth uber alles.

England was so in love with protecting the Just So Flawed that he cried over the issue of funding F-22 production.

To get an idea of the inflated ego involved, you must view this photo (warning; large image) on the largest screen possible. Maybe even a wall poster would not do the message justice.

What else about  England and his opinions on Defense? He never served a day in uniform. It is people like England that have made the defense power of the U.S. weaker and not stronger.

England does get one thing right from the NY Times op/ed.

"Budget decisions do have consequences, and making the right ones is crucial for our nation’s security."

Look in the mirror Mr. England.

Not much of a matter, now that there is no money to clean up the billions wasted in poor decisions by England's kind.
